Yes if playing 80mins he won’t get that though! Even if he goes to Cronulla this season he will get around 60mins I reckon so not enough.

Grant, Carrigan, Koro, Harris, Ponga, Crichton were the 6. Through this season we will see opportunities as well, with player injuries, roles changing and likely guns returning that are underpriced.

I can't see Macca go back to 80mins to start the season McInnes or BHunt may slot into the 9 later in the game if Macca starts.

Others who have the potential:

Fogarty: averaged 61.4 in 80-minute games between rounds 9-19 last year.

Saifiti: He's 24 now, touching on 100 first grade games, another Origin series under his belt, and in eight 50+ minute games last year he averaged 59.9.

AFB: Unlikely but if the Warriors decide to play him 60+ minutes his average is 62.

Tino: Everyone's on him already and I think it would take a heap of attacking stats, but not impossible I guess.

Mahoney: Into his third year as a starter. Went from averaging 51 in 80 minute games in 2019 to 56 in 80 minute games in 2020. Not inconceivable he adds another 5 points to that this year? Maybe gets less minutes with Lussick and Roache hanging around.

Horse: A sample size of two whole games, but he averaged 61 when playing 60+ minutes last year. Can't see him getting that much of a role obviously.

Brown: Priced at 55, but averaged 65 in a 70+ minute lock role last year. Only a 6 game sample size. Unlikely to get those minutes consistently you'd think.

Hope all is well MF. Did they do the count to 10? Then you wake a few hours later having only counted to 4

Surely this doesn't happen. CNK is solid. Timoko or Valeimi are good enough to cover Croker.

I love the thinking. Will need to look more into Fogarty.

As much as I find this likely bit of business by the Dragons uninspiring, would seriously consider Macca at R1 if this goes through as expected.

I'd be tempted if he stayed on the right, but you don't get a lot of right footed kickers kicking big kick metres from the left side.

How long till this changes? Wasn’t Titans success built off the fact Fogarty controlled like 90% of the game and took the kicking/control out of Taylors hands??

Milchcow wrote:Also, how do you think Fitzgibbon out helps Watson? Barnett to edge when he would otherwise have started lock?
Fitzgibbon missing about a month, so if I only wanted Watson as lock (and didn't want him as a bench player) I am not sure this injury would be enough to sway me
